Hip Hop Hangover & Everything Scrapp'n Design Team Work


It's Unity Stamp Company Hip Hop Hangover Friday. The customers get the opportunity to join the design team in showing off Unity products & inspiring you.

Since there is no A/C in the room I scrap in I have been sneaking in there early morning or late at night. We're now working with the insurance company because it seems that there was a power surge that "cooked" the entire central a/c unit. I'm hoping that works out - it's a lot easier to pay $500 than $4500

Here's a couple of projects I worked on using product from Everything Scrapp'n Online Scrapbooking Store (it's my day as guest poster on the ES store blog) along with my Unity Stamps...

For the layout I decided to try a new size for me - 8x8. I thought it would be too restricting but I actually liked working in this format.

This is a photo of our basset hound Sammi. We spoil our pets with presents on their birthdays & when I was a child we even had birthday parties. This is one of those party photos from 1979.


Supplies:
Cardstock (Bazzill - White Orange Peal)
Paper (My Mind's Eye -No Worries Content Circles, My Mind's Eye -Pirouette Twirling Circles & My Mind's Eye -Free Flowing Stripes Die Cut Paper)
Letters (American Crafts Thickers -By the Yard Bubblegum)
Stamp (Unity Stamp Company - Fact of Love)
Photo Corners (Heidi Swapp); Ribbon (American Crafts); Ink (Ranger); Thread (Coats & Clarks)

I also made this card. The American Crafts paper has a nice "wave" pattern so I thought the Unity goldfish stamp from the brand new customer pick kit would be super cute. I colored in the stamped image with my watercolor pencils then added a touch of water to blend. Cute & easy. This card will be going to Cards For Heroes (organzation that collects & ships blank handmade cards to our troops on active duty)


Supplies:
Cardstock (Bazzill - White Orange Peal)
Paper (American Crafts -Splash Backyard)
Ribbon (American Crafts -Leaf 1 - Backyard Ribbon)
Ink (Ranger); Watercolor Pencils (Faber-Castell
Stamps (Unity Stamp Co -Hodge Podge of Happiness & Folk Inspired)
